Abstract




The research describes the application of Blended-Learning Model in TEFL Workshop to students of the English Language Education Department. In the new normal era, the learning process still implements online systems. TEFL Workshop is a course requiring students to practice teaching the language components and skills. However, students experience some challenges taking this course. Therefore, the application of Blended-Learning Model was one solution to it. The design of this research is descriptive qualitative. The subjects were students of 2018 cohort. The instruments were an observation guidelines sheet to observe the process of applying Blended- Learning Model, online platforms and applications embedded in Virlenda LMS, and offline in the classroom. These were also used to evaluate the students’ learning achievement. Questionnaires were given to inquire students' opinions regarding its application. The collected data were analysed descriptive qualitatively. The findings show that Blended-Learning Model provides an appropriate teaching method for conducting learning and teaching in TEFL Workshop course in the new normal era.
